First one required rock hopping, but easy to keep feet dry. Nothing else was more than a trickle. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Trail in great shape, well-blazed and easy to follow. Quite a bit of mud, especially between the jct with Mahoosuc Trail and the summit, although given how wet and muddy the Mahoosucs are in general, I expected more. |

| Comments: |
Quick up and back. On the observation tower I could see rain coming from over Baldpate, so I decided to head back quick as I didn't really want to get wet. It sprinkled a little, and hailed on me for a minute, but I beat the real rain. |
